A vertically rectangular orange silk cloth is embroidered with thick, off-white serrated bands curving through the center. Teal crescent shapes are interspersed between these bands, each containing yellow birds facing a stylized tree. Small blue and yellow floral motifs are scattered across the ground. A thin off-white border outlines the rectangular edges of the panel.
